Fifteen

~Isabelle ~

"Hunter?" Kaylee asked in disbelief of what she just heard from Kyle's mouth.

I instantly gave a deadly signal to go along with it if she doesn't want to get into serious trouble with Kyle, she immediately complied.

"Yeah, hunter, any problem?" Kyle sent a stern look.

"Not at all, it's just that um… I got attacked by a male hunter as well, I had to fight but his weapons made me weak." She lied perfectly as if she had good grades in the lying course.

"Really? You got attacked by the same hunter, wow, we aren't safe." I supported her lie and Kyle flashed us a confused look.

"Wait but where were you when this happened?" He inquired from Kaylee.

"Close to your cabin." She voiced out in a low tone.

"Doing what? Were you planning to hurt Isabelle after our arguement?" He glared at her to the extent that she almost chickened out.

"Ummm… no, why would I ever do that? Do you think that I would want to hurt her after what happened the last time? I have learnt my lesson for real." Her eyes started getting teary and I was instantly amused by her performance.

She's such a manipulative bitch, no wonder, Kyle doesn't like her.

Wait, what are they talking about?

What happened last time?

Her words made my head hurt because I tried to remember part of the dream I had but I couldn't remember.

"Ah.." I winced in pain for real this time.

"Babe, are you okay?"

I shook my head gently, "My head hurts so bad."

"She needs rest." The pack doctor said.

Kyle nodded and told the pack doctor to go back to treating Kaylee, he carried me out of the room to ours.

I tried so hard not to think about what Kaylee just said or try to remember that part of my dream but I could not.

" What happened last time?" The question slipped out of my mouth and for some reason, it made him freeze.

"Kyle?"

"Yeah." He turned to look at me.

"What happened last time?" I asked again with my voice highly pitched.

"Ummm.. Kaylee got into a fight with a human at a party, the girl is just one of those who's crazy over me and Kaylee being a werewolf who was angry at that time got her severely injured, the girl stayed at the hospital for weeks but she's fine now." He explained calmly.

I guess he figured that I was watching his body language in case he wanted to tell a lie or maybe he was just calm because he was telling the truth.

" Wow, do I know her? "

" I'm not sure, I don't even know her name. " He replied.

"Is that why you avoid talking with girls alot?" I questioned.

"Yeah, to avoid them getting injured or killed by Kaylee, that was another reason why I was avoiding you at some point, I thought you were another human but I couldn't help it, I was so drawn to you and your abilities were extra ordinary." He uttered with a smile and I reciprocated.

" That's justifiable." I laid on the bed gently to rest.

" Yeah, you need to rest, I'm going out with Aiden, we got some jobs to do, I will be back in the evening, if Kaylee tries to disturb your peace, let me know, I will deal with her when I get back." He placed a small kiss on my forehead which caused butterflies in my tummy.

He hesitated before leaving but the smile on my face assured him that I will be okay, he left shortly and I decided to rest.

The door suddenly opened to reveal Kaylee in my room, I rolled my eyes at the ceiling before sitting up to face her.

"What do you want? Are you here to kill me again since you didn't succeed the last time?!" I fired at her.

She shrugged, "Not really, I was just wondering why you lied to your mate."

"Duh, to save your ass from getting kicked out of the pack house and into the street, oh, is your brain too dumb and slow like Patrick star to comprehend that?!" I was highly irritated by her presence.

If tables were turned and Kaylee was in my position, she wouldn't hesitate to kick me out of the house after telling Kyle everything and even adding lies to it so he would never think of having mercy on me but I'm not like that.

I know what it means to be alone, to not have parents, Kaylee and I have that in common except the fact that's she's super rich but I wouldn't want her to turn into a rogue.

I'm not sure any werewolf would want their worst enemy to be a rogue.

"Well, there's no reason to be rude." She deadpanned.

"Seriously?! You attacked me, you almost killed me if I wasn't a werewolf, I would have died because humans are no match for werewolf and then, I decide to not be like you and lie to save your ass, there's no point in this conversation if you aren't going to say sorry. " I yelled at her.

" Calm down, you have everything to be angry. I was driven by anger and jealousy, I didn't intend to kill you, I just wanted to teach you a lesson so you would stay away from my man but now, that I know the moon goddess has paired you both to be together, who exactly am I to destroy that? Kyle isn't mine and will never be, I was just the one who got affected with the whole childhood love cliche thingy." She stated in a very sad tone, when she raised her head from the ground, tears were already dripping down her face.

I decided not to be moved the slightest, I mean this is Kaylee we are talking about here, the queen of manipulation, goddess of jealousy and revenge, the winner of Crocodile tears competition.

"You can drop the act." I commented.

"Act?"

"You think this is an act?! I'm severely hurt because the guy I have always wanted all my life, the same guy that my father promised that I would get married to turned out not to be mine, what did I ever do to her?! Why does she have to punish me for the sins of my father? " She cried and I suddenly felt a soft spot for her.

" Kaylee, it's okay, I'm sure your mate is out there or even in this pack house but you can't just see it because of the obsession you have for Kyle. " I asserted.

" It's not an obsession!!! Everybody should stop saying that, you guys don't know what my heart feels for Kyle. " She yelled at me and I flinched.

Okay, that's something.

" I'm sorry for judging wrongly. " I apologized.

" I only assumed that it was an obsession because you tried to kill me so you could be with Kyle. " I added.

" Like I have clarified before, I never wanted to kill you, I thought you were a human and Kyle shouldn't be planning a future with you when he has me but now that you are a werewolf, there's no use, he would never love me," She sniffed as she wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

" I'm only here to tell you Thank you, he already hates, if you had told him, nobody would have been able to beg him, not you, not even the moon goddess. " She thanked me.

" I didn't deserve it, I have been an horrible person to you, I only acted that way because I am not a fan of werewolf and human being mates, it never ends well. "

Her words made me flash back to the fact of me being a half blooded wolf, maybe, she's right, humans and werewolves shouldn't be mate, maybe that's why my parents never survived.

There will always be a crazy wolf trying to sabotage their forbidden love.

"Maybe, your mate is a human." I didn't know when those words slipped out of my mouth.

"The moon goddess forbids it, I know she doesn't like me but I don't think she would want to punish me to that extent." She argued.

"I'm really sorry and thank you, now that I know you are a werewolf and Kyle's mate, I won't try to sabotage your love story, I can only watch and hope for mine, if possible go in the search of mine." She said.

Did I just hear Kaylee Roy apologizing and thanking me?

No, I'm not sure, how is that even possible?

I shouldn't trust her completely, maybe she wants me to be friends with her so she can crush me.

I gave her a surprised look and she laughed, "Surprising, isn't it? I can be like this sometimes, this is the side Kyle was used to it before things went down, I'm trying to be like this for everybody and not only him, I need to change if I ever want to meet my mate, maybe that way the moon goddess will forgive me. "

Wow.

"Yeah, the change is good, you should keep it up." I told her and we both smiled.

She stood up, "I should get going."

"Kaylee." I stopped her.

"Yeah."

"What happened last time?" I asked.

She smiled at me, "Kyle has already told you what happened or you don't believe him?"

"Uh, not that, of course I believe him, it's just…" I couldn't find the right words.

"It's just nothing, he told you nothing but the truth, you should learn to trust him, it's good for a healthy relationship." She told me before leaving.

Healthy relationship?

I'm not sure, I have already told a lie to him.

Wait, how did she know that he has told me? Was ahe eavesdropping?.

No, dimwit, she's a werewolf, sharp hearing ability, remember?.

Oh, right.
